Decorah Police responded to a traffic accident Friday night on Highway 52 in the construction zone near Madison Road.  47-year-old Dee O'Connell of Prairie Du Chien struck the rear of a car driven by 48-year-old Huisen Guhaad of Postville while it was stopped for a red light.  O'Connell said she saw the light was yellow and was not sure what Guhaad was going to do.  The accident caused $2,000 in damages, no injuries and no traffic citations.
